HUGE Monster Youtuber Mom UPDATE, Eugene Lee Yang, Hong Kong Chaos, & Impeachment Hearing HIGHLIGHTS Alice Pinney: As someone who's native chinese but lived in the US for a majority of my life, this Hong King situation really concerns me. My family lives very close to the Hong Kong border so I cant help but be worried. Of course I stand by Hong Kong and their message, but I dont stand by both side's use of violence, but it's hard to continue a peaceful demonstration when bullets are being rained down upon you. What concerns me even more is the ongoing propaganda of hong kong hatred in the mainland, with many of my mainland family and friends applauding the use of live ammunition to squash the protests. I can no longer say that it's out of fear that they say that but more out of their own feelings of being justified in their actions. I dont know how to express my own feelings to them and my values when I know that they deem me as an outsider and not one of their own anymore. I dont blame them for their sentiment but I also know that I cannot simply wash away their clouded judgement no matter how many videos I show, how much proof I have, you cant convince someone so deeply rooted in the propaganda and refusing to have an open mind and open heart to hear you out. The rebuttal of President Xi would never betray us or He's going to make China the best country gets tiring and feels very nationalistic and dangerous. Maybe I dont understand politics enough to have much of a standing in my predictions, but even if hong kong wins, I dont see this going well. The hatred runs deep in china with all the Weibo and wechat posts, and I can only imagine everyone becoming more and more extremist in their views and more divided. I'm afraid of another Tianamen square Massacre happening in hong kong with the Chinese military, but I'm also fearful of hong kong being forced into the same ignorance and blindness as the mainlanders are, and soon, no one will have the eyes or mouth to discern the truth or question their own realities anymore. It's just going to very I'm right and you must listen to me or else. Even though I'm so far away from home right now, I've never been more homesick and fearful of home before. Thanks for listening to my Ted talk.

No one looked at the transcript and went That still looks like a problem except from the ones who are partisan enough to to believe the loose interpretation of what it says, unfairly painting it in a bad light when in reality theres no case for the accusations related to it. Trump couldn't hold any aid hostage, he does not have the power to do that, he only has the power to withhold for a period, meaning the basis of the already loose argument is null and void. I don't get why you act as if it's so suspicious when it clearly isn't, it's literally just a boring conversation of two leaders discussing a various range of topics. I just can't listen to you, Phil, on this topic anymore, especially not after you blatantly lied last time when saying Trump asked Ukraine to look into Joe Biden. He asked to look into Hunter Biden, not Joe Biden, and rightfully so. If Hunter Biden was anyone else than any American would be happy to weed out the seemingly corrupt, yet now that part of the story is completely ignored, kind of like the whole Epstein thing. Gotte divert the attention over to Trump as usual since Epstein was too connected to the democrats.

Wait, why was DeFranco so concerned for the victims of Epstein not getting justice, but in the case of that woman, he just says Good. that's where this story ends. It absolutely does not Those poor kids will never get closure on something that reached much deeper than Epstein. They have questions that will never get answers, such as: Why were we adopted in the first place? Why so many of us? Why couldn't I make her happy? Did she ever love us? Was there anything I could have done better? And that's not the end of it. They will probably be separated in the foster care system. It'll be difficult to trust anyone and form healthy relationships. For the rest of their lives, they will have her living in a dark corner of their minds, giving the rebuke they've heard before when they make a mistake and lurking in nightmares. It's worse when it's your own damn parent that tortured you to perform skits watched over a billion times by strangers. I KNOW that they deserved and needed justice, but instead they were robbed of that healing closure. I feel badly for those kids.

An independent journalist from Germany went to Hong Kong last week. He's been on ISIS frontlines but said that he was more afraid of HK police than of ISIS, because they are absolutely out of control. They regularly pepper sprayed him, pointed weapons with live ammunition directly at him, threatened him, teargassed him, all despite him clearly being identifiable as a journalist. HK police are marauding through the streets, doing what they want to whoever they want. He saw them fire pepper spray in the direction of a mom with a stroller. She took her baby and ran away, leaving the stroller behind. Police are randomly mobbing public places like malls, pepper spraying anybody, shooting loads of tear gas into crowds in these closed environments to stroke panic. There's a video of a cop on a motorcycle who drove at high speed into a crowd running away, backing up and doing it again. The German journalist (his name is Enno Lenze btw) was told by police two days ago that he either leaves in a plane or dead. So he obviously had to leave.

Phil, maybe it's the Jewishness in me, but I don't think good is appropriate. That kind of mentality cheapens life. I don't feel bad about her dying, but at the same time, I don't feel good about it. I believe that people should pay for their crimes, but the process which determines if or how they would do that is supposed to be just, and killing, regardless of the context, it not just. There are times where one must kill, and it's not right, but the killer is not to blame, however, this is not such a time. There is no risk to anyone if she stayed alive. Just to reiterate, I am by no means saddened or upset by her loss, nor am I saying that the fact that punishment was passed in one form or another, and that she paid for her crimes, should not be celebrated. I am merely saying that the fact that she died, in and of itself, as opposed to living out a sentence, is good.

This is a political proceeding Yes, it is. And even though I DESPISE Trump, I have serious misgivings about the motivation behind it. Considering that Democrats have been screaming (and attempting) IMPEACHMENT since the day after the 2016 election, I have definite concerns about impeachment being used as a weapon against people that one party or the other simply doesn't like. Under Obama, Mr. Biden engaged in quid pro quo with Ukraine (and bragged about it, but I never saw Obama or Biden threatened with impeachment over it. Trump is a disgusting disgrace to the office, but so is what is--and has been--happening in Washington.

Maybe try having different segments, like gaming (tons of politics in video games right now, the biggest of course right now being blizzard and china) or even a unique Philip Defranco sports segment where you have stories around the sports themselves, for example the amazing things going on with Nigerian fighters finding success in MMA (the impact Israel Adesanya is having already with the fame he's amassing. There's an amazing EMG video of him going to his old primary school in Nigeria) and other such stories that are sports centered, but not really sporty sports stories. Hope this helps. Love what you do

These honk Kong protests are the most impressive protests i've ever seen. Even after going on for half a year they're still fighting as hard, hell even harder now, as when they started to to keep their democracy. They didnt just die down because their president decided to sort of give them what they want waaay too late, like what usually happens with protests. They know its just gonna happen again if they just stop, so no incentive for them to stop protesting unless they feel like this wont happen again.

Hey, I watched 6 hours of that hearing, that was some terrible highlights I thought the opening testimonies and first 45 mins of Democrat lawyers were quite damning for Trump, however the Republican's then tore the testimony to shreds. You would never dream of getting someone sacked over third hand information that rests heavily on interpretation, and is not supported by the alleged 'victim' (Ukraine) or none of the accusations came true. The highlights shown here were not how it went down.

Democrats have and are still wasting hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars on this illegitimate impeachment. They know it's a waste of time and they are only trying to make Trump look bad for the re-election hoping it will cause a new president, which means they have no problem knowing they are wasting hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to do so. Thinks about that the next time a Democrat talks about saving you money in exchange for their vote.
